My 1987 Pro-V was almost indestructible. I ran the heck out of it. The engine wasn't running if it wasn't turning 6000-6200. I ran the cheapest gas and oil I could find and only de-carbed once a year. It was running like a top when I traded it in with my old Skeeter around 94 and it was pressed into service as a ski-boat/fishing boat. Last I heard the engine was on the boat in Bellingham and still purring like a kitty. It certainly had a guardian angel.

Wow that is a good find. I keep reading those old Pro V's are bulletproof too.

I ran across this one locally and thought of some of you folks who are looking for a boat to start out in without too much investment.
